left hand window shows the directories and the right hand window

shows the files in the selected directory. To open a file, select

it in the files listing then choose the correct file type. If the

file has an extension which defines its filetype (such as
|
|
<TT

<SPAN

Alternatively, you can force <SPAN

open the file as a specific format by choosing one of the other

what the image is before opening it. This is particularly useful
|

for larger images where opening the full image will take a while.

If an image doesn't have a preview, you can click
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="GUIBUTTON"
|
|
>Generate Preview</SPAN
|
|

|
preview image is stored in a sub-directory of the current one

called <TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|

>.xvpics</TT
|

|
|
preview image will be used in the future when using the
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="INTERFACE"
|
|
>open</SPAN
|
|
> dialog. Clicking
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="GUIBUTTON"
|
|
>OK</SPAN
|

|
|
settings; <SPAN

press <B
